Description

Information display method, terminal device, and computer-readable storage medium

Technical Field

The present application belongs to the field of terminal technologies, and in particular, relates to an information display method, a terminal device, and a computer-readable storage medium.

Background

At present, some information which is not checked by a user often exists in the terminal device, and in order to remind the user to check the information which is not checked, the terminal device may display an application identifier of an application corresponding to the information which is not checked in a status bar at the top end of a display interface, and/or may display the number of application identifiers of the application corresponding to the information which is not checked in an application icon. The way of displaying the identifiers in the status bar and/or displaying the number in the application icons cannot determine whether the user really notices the prompt information, and the situation that the user cannot timely view the information without noticing the prompt information may occur, so that the user may not timely view the information or omit the view of the information, which affects the user experience.

Disclosure of Invention

The embodiment of the application provides an information display method, terminal equipment and a computer readable storage medium, which can be used for displaying prompt information which is not noticed by a user again, and are beneficial to the user to check the information in time, reducing the omission of checking the information and improving the user experience.

In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an information display method, which is applied to a terminal device, and the method may include:

when the unread prompt message exists in the terminal equipment, acquiring a first gazing path of a user within a first preset time length;

and when the first gaze path does not comprise the display position corresponding to the prompt message, or the first gaze path comprises the display position corresponding to the prompt message, but the gaze duration of the user at the display position is less than a second preset duration, displaying the prompt message in a preset mode.

By the information display method, when the terminal equipment determines that unread prompt information exists in the terminal equipment, whether the prompt information is noticed by a user or not can be determined through a gazing technology. When it is determined that the user does not notice the prompt information, the terminal device can intelligently display the prompt information again through a preset mode so as to improve the possibility that the user notices the prompt information, thereby helping the user to check the information in time, reducing the possibility that the user omits to check the information, improving the user experience, and having stronger usability and practicability.

It should be noted that the prompt information may be notification information corresponding to information that is not viewed in the application, or may be a highlight performed on a certain system function or a certain application function in the terminal device, that is, a highlight performed on a certain system function or a certain application function may also be the prompt information in the embodiment of the present application. Alternatively, the system function or the application function may be a newly added or updated function.

The gaze fixation technology can be based on eyeball tracking, and the eyeball tracking can be performed based on a face image acquired by a camera. Namely, the terminal equipment can acquire the face image of the user through the front camera, and can perform eye positioning analysis on the acquired face image to determine the eye region of the user. Eye analysis may then be performed on the eye region to determine a pupil position of the left eye and a pupil position of the right eye, and a gaze direction of the left eye may be determined from the pupil position of the left eye and a gaze direction of the right eye may be determined from the pupil position of the right eye. Finally, the intersection of the left-eye line of sight direction and the right-eye line of sight direction may be determined as the gaze position of the user. Therefore, the first gaze path of the user in the first preset time length can be obtained according to the gaze position at each moment in the first preset time length.

It should be noted that the first gaze path may be a gaze path of the user in the display interface of the terminal device, that is, the terminal device may first acquire all gaze positions of the user within a first preset time period, determine a target gaze position located in the display interface of the terminal device among all gaze positions, and then may determine a gaze path composed of the target gaze positions as the first gaze path.

It should be understood that the display position corresponding to the prompt information refers to a display position of the prompt information in a display interface of the terminal device.

Optionally, when it is determined that unread prompt information exists in the terminal device, the acquiring a first gaze path of the user within a first preset time duration includes:

when the unread prompt information exists in the terminal equipment, acquiring an information type corresponding to the prompt information;

and when the information type is a target type, acquiring a first gaze path of a user within a first preset time length, wherein the target type is an information type corresponding to preset important information.

It should be understood that the information received by the terminal device may include some information that the user may not want to view, such as advertisement push information, and if the prompt information is displayed again for the information that the user does not want to view, the user experience is obviously affected. In the embodiment of the application, the terminal equipment can only display the prompt message again for the important message which the user wants to check in time. That is, when it is determined that unread prompt information exists in the terminal device, the terminal device may first acquire an information type corresponding to the prompt information, and when the information type is a target type, the terminal device may acquire a first gaze path of the user within a first preset time duration, so as to determine whether the user notices the prompt information according to the first gaze path. The target type is an information type corresponding to preset important information. The important information may be at least one of short message information, WeChat information, mail information, incoming call information and the like corresponding to the target contact person, content push information and the like corresponding to a target application program or a target account in the target application program, and prompt information corresponding to a target system function or a target application function. Here, the important information may be custom-set by the user, or may be determined by default by the terminal device based on the historical behavior data of the user.

In a possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the displaying the prompt information in a preset manner may include:

acquiring an operation position and a gaze position of the user on a display interface of the terminal equipment at present, and a preset position which is preset in the display interface and is used for displaying the prompt message;

determining whether there is an overlap between the preset position and the operating position, and determining whether there is an overlap between the preset position and the gaze position;

when the preset position is not overlapped with the operation position and the preset position is not overlapped with the gaze position, displaying the prompt message at the preset position in the preset mode;

when the preset position is overlapped with the operation position or the preset position is overlapped with the gaze position, adjusting the preset position according to the operation position and the gaze position, and displaying the prompt message at the adjusted preset position in the preset mode, wherein the adjusted preset position is any position which is not overlapped with the operation position and the gaze position in the display interface.

Optionally, when the user is performing a related operation (for example, playing a game, watching a video or reading a video) on the display interface, in order to reduce interference of the display of the prompt information on the current operation of the user, the terminal device may determine the position where the prompt information is displayed again based on a preset position where the prompt information is displayed in the display interface and an operation position and a gaze position during the operation of the user, which are set by default in advance, so as to display the prompt information again on the basis of not affecting the current operation of the user, thereby improving the user experience.

Specifically, the displaying the prompt information at the preset position in the preset manner may include:

and displaying the prompt information at the preset position in a banner or popup mode.

In another possible implementation manner of the first aspect, the displaying the prompt information in a preset manner may include:

and acquiring the gaze position of the user on the display interface of the terminal equipment at present, and displaying the prompt information at the gaze position in a banner or popup mode.

Optionally, to increase the possibility that the user notices the prompt message, the terminal device may also determine the position where the prompt message is displayed again according to the gaze position of the user currently in the display interface. Specifically, the terminal device may detect a gaze position of the user currently in the display interface, and may determine a position of the user at or near the gaze position in the display interface as a position at which the prompt information is displayed again, so as to display the prompt information at the position at which the user is currently gazing through a banner or a popup, thereby improving a possibility that the prompt information is noticed by the user.

In an example, before the displaying the prompt information in a preset manner, the displaying may include:

The demodulator is used for demodulating the received electromagnetic wave signal into a low-frequency baseband signal. The demodulator then passes the demodulated low frequency baseband signal to a baseband processor for processing. The low frequency baseband signal is processed by the baseband processor and then transferred to the application processor. The application processor outputs a sound signal through an audio device (not limited to the speaker 170A, the receiver 170B, etc.) or displays an image or video through the display screen 194. In some embodiments, the modem processor may be a stand-alone device.

The embodiment of the present application takes an Android system with a layered architecture as an example, and exemplarily illustrates a software structure of the terminal device 100.

Fig. 2 is a block diagram of a software configuration of the terminal device 100 according to the embodiment of the present application.

The layered architecture divides the software into several layers, each layer having a clear role and division of labor. The layers communicate with each other through a software interface. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, an application layer, an application framework layer, an Android runtime (Android runtime) and system library, and a kernel layer from top to bottom.

The application layer may include a series of application packages.

As shown in fig. 2, the application package may include applications such as camera, gallery, calendar, phone call, map, navigation, WLAN, bluetooth, music, video, short message, etc.

The application framework layer provides an Application Programming Interface (API) and a programming framework for the application program of the application layer. The application framework layer includes a number of predefined functions.

As shown in FIG. 2, the application framework layers may include a window manager, content provider, view system, phone manager, resource manager, notification manager, and the like.

The window manager is used for managing window programs. The window manager can obtain the size of the display screen, judge whether a status bar exists, lock the screen, intercept the screen and the like.

The content provider is used to store and retrieve data and make it accessible to applications. The data may include video, images, audio, calls made and received, browsing history and bookmarks, phone books, etc.

The view system includes visual controls such as controls to display text, controls to display pictures, and the like. The view system may be used to build applications. The display interface may be composed of one or more views. For example, the display interface including the short message notification icon may include a view for displaying text and a view for displaying pictures.

The phone manager is used to provide the communication function of the terminal device 100. Such as management of call status (including on, off, etc.).

The resource manager provides various resources for the application, such as localized strings, icons, pictures, layout files, video files, and the like.

The notification manager enables the application to display notification information in the status bar, can be used to convey notification-type messages, can disappear automatically after a short dwell, and does not require user interaction. Such as a notification manager used to inform download completion, message alerts, etc. The notification manager may also be a notification that appears in the form of a chart or scroll bar text at the top status bar of the system, such as a notification of a background running application, or a notification that appears on the screen in the form of a dialog window. For example, text information is prompted in the status bar, a prompt tone is given, the terminal device vibrates, an indicator light flickers, and the like.

The Android Runtime comprises a core library and a virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for scheduling and managing an Android system.

The core library comprises two parts: one part is a function which needs to be called by java language, and the other part is a core library of android.

The application layer and the application framework layer run in a virtual machine. And executing java files of the application program layer and the application program framework layer into a binary file by the virtual machine. The virtual machine is used for performing the functions of object life cycle management, stack management, thread management, safety and exception management, garbage collection and the like.

The following describes exemplary workflow of the software and hardware of the terminal device 100 in connection with capturing a photo scene.

When the touch sensor 180K receives a touch operation, a corresponding hardware interrupt is issued to the kernel layer. The kernel layer processes the touch operation into an original input event (including touch coordinates, a time stamp of the touch operation, and other information). The raw input events are stored at the kernel layer. And the application program framework layer acquires the original input event from the kernel layer and identifies the control corresponding to the input event. Taking the touch operation as a touch click operation, and taking a control corresponding to the click operation as a control of a camera application icon as an example, the camera application calls an interface of an application framework layer, starts the camera application, further starts a camera drive by calling a kernel layer, and captures a still image or a video through the camera 193.

The information display method provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

At present, when information received by a terminal device is not viewed by a user in time, the terminal device may display notification information in a status bar at the top of a display interface, and/or may display the notification information in an application icon of an application corresponding to a main interface to prompt the user to view the information. For example, the terminal device may display an application identifier of an application corresponding to the information in the status bar to notify the user that the application has information that is not viewed, and the user may pull down the status bar to enter the notification bar to view specific notification information. For example, the terminal device may display the unread number in an application icon of an application corresponding to the information to notify the user that the application has information that is not viewed. For example, the terminal device may display an application identifier of an application corresponding to the information in the status bar, and may also display an unread number in an application icon of the application corresponding to the information to notify the user that the application has information that is not viewed. The following description will exemplarily take an example in which the terminal device simultaneously displays the application identifier in the status bar and the unread number in the application icon of the main interface.

It should be noted that the information received by the terminal device may be information that does not require real-time response, such as a short message, a WeChat, and content push, or information that requires real-time response, such as a voice call, a video call, and a telephone. For example, when an incoming call received by the terminal device is not answered by the user, as shown in (a) in fig. 3, the terminal device may display the number of missed calls in an application icon 301 corresponding to a telephone application in the main interface, and may display an application identifier 303 corresponding to the telephone application in a status bar 302 at the top of the display interface, so as to remind the user of the missed call. When the user pulls down the status bar 302, the terminal apparatus may display a notification bar as shown in (b) in fig. 3 in response to the pull-down operation of the user, and may display information of a specific missed call or the like in the notification bar. The main interface may also display application icons corresponding to other application programs in the terminal device, such as an application icon corresponding to a clock application, an application icon corresponding to a calendar application, an application icon corresponding to a gallery application, and the like. Icons for conventional functions such as time, power, WLAN, bluetooth, mobile data, etc. may also be displayed in the status bar 302.

In addition, when there is a system function update or an application function update in the terminal device, the terminal device may highlight the system function or the application function, such as font color conversion, font size conversion, icon color conversion, and the like, to prompt the user to view the updated content.

Experiments show that the notification information displayed in the status bar and/or the application icon or the highlighting of the system function or the application function is often easily ignored by the user, that is, the existing prompt information of the terminal device is easily ignored by the user, so that the user may not view the information in time, and the user may miss the information. In the embodiment of the application, in order to reduce the possibility that the user misses the information, the terminal device may display the prompt information again in a preset manner when detecting that the user does not notice the prompt information, so as to draw the attention of the user to the prompt information, and enable the user to view the information in time.

For example, when it is determined that the unread prompt message exists in the terminal device, the terminal device may first detect whether the user is using the terminal device. When it is detected that the user is using the terminal device, the terminal device may acquire a gaze path of the user within a first preset time period (i.e., a first gaze path as described in the claims, hereinafter referred to as a first gaze path), and may determine whether the prompt information is noticed by the user according to the first gaze path. Alternatively, the terminal device may determine whether the user is using the terminal device according to the screen locking state of the terminal device. For example, the terminal device may determine that the user is using the terminal device when the terminal device is in an unlocked state. Optionally, the terminal device may determine whether the user is using the terminal device according to a screen state of the display interface and a user image captured by a front camera of the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device is in a bright screen state and a complete face or complete five sense organs can be recognized from a user image acquired by the front camera, the terminal device may determine that the user is using the terminal device. Alternatively, the terminal device may determine whether the user is using the terminal device according to motion data detected by a sensor such as a gyroscope in the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device is determined to be in a motion state by motion data detected by a sensor such as a gyroscope in the terminal device, the terminal device may determine that the user is not currently using the terminal device by default.

In the embodiment of the application, the first preset time duration may be set by the user, or may be set by default by the terminal device, and the first preset time duration may be calculated from the time when the user is using the terminal device. For example, the terminal device may default the first preset duration to an arbitrary value such as 30 seconds. For the terminal device in the screen-locked state after displaying the prompt message, the terminal device may calculate a first preset time period from when the unlocking operation is detected, where a first gaze path of the user within the first preset time period may be a gaze path of the user within 30 seconds after the terminal device is unlocked. The first gaze path may be a gaze path of the user in the display interface, i.e. the terminal device may determine a gaze path consisting of gaze positions of the user in the display interface within the 30 seconds as the first gaze path.

It should be noted that the terminal device may redisplay all unread prompt messages (including prompt messages that have been redisplayed and prompt messages that have not been redisplayed) when detecting that the user does not notice the prompt message. Alternatively, the terminal device may display only unread prompt information that is not displayed again, and when it is detected that the user does not notice the prompt information, the prompt information is displayed again. That is, when the terminal device determines that the unread prompt message exists in the terminal device, the terminal device may first determine whether the terminal device has displayed the prompt message again. When it is determined that the terminal device has displayed the prompt message again, at this time, the terminal device may no longer detect whether the user notices the prompt message, and no longer display the prompt message again.

It should be understood that when the first gaze path of the user within the first preset time period does not include the display position of the prompt message in the display interface, the terminal device may determine that the user does not notice the prompt message, and at this time, the terminal device may intelligently display the prompt message again in a preset manner to draw the attention of the user to the prompt message, so as to view the message in time. When the first gaze path of the user within the first preset time length contains the display position of the prompt message in the display interface, the terminal device may determine that the prompt message is noticed by the user, and at this time, the terminal device may not display the prompt message again.

For example, in a scene where the terminal device has an unread short message, when the first gaze path acquired by the terminal device does not include the display position where the application identifier corresponding to the short message application in the status bar is located and does not include the display position where the application icon corresponding to the short message application is located, the terminal device may determine that the user does not notice the prompt information. For example, when the first gaze path acquired by the terminal device includes a position where an application icon corresponding to the short message application is located, the terminal device may determine that the prompt information is noticed by the user. Or, when the first gaze path acquired by the terminal device contains the display position of the application identifier corresponding to the short message application in the status bar, the terminal device may determine that the prompt information is noticed by the user.

It will be appreciated that a person who does notice something often requires a certain length of fixation and may not notice something if it is swept only for a short time. In the embodiment of the application, the second preset time length can be set in advance, so that whether the user really notices the prompt information is determined according to whether the watching time length of the user in the display position reaches the second preset time length, whether the prompt information is displayed again is determined, the accuracy of displaying the prompt information again is improved, and the possibility that the user misses the information is reduced. The second preset time length is the minimum value of the time required for people to actually notice a certain event, and can be set by default by the terminal equipment or set by the user. For example, when the minimum time required for the related art to actually notice a certain event is 500 milliseconds as shown by experimental studies, the terminal device may set the second preset duration to 500 milliseconds by default. For example, the user may set the second preset duration from the row based on the minimum time (e.g., any value such as 600 ms or 400 ms) required for the user to actually notice an event.

Specifically, when the terminal device determines that the first gaze path of the user within the first preset duration includes the display position of the prompt information in the display interface, the terminal device may further obtain the gaze duration of the user at the display position, and determine the size relationship between the gaze duration and the second preset duration. When the gaze duration is less than the second preset duration, the terminal device may determine that the user may just sweep through the reminder without actually noticing the reminder. When the gazing duration is greater than or equal to a second preset duration, the terminal device may determine that the user has actually noticed the prompt.

In the embodiment of the application, the terminal device can acquire the gaze position of the user in the display interface within the first preset duration through a gaze technology, and can obtain the first gaze path of the user within the first preset duration according to the gaze position.

Alternatively, the gaze technology may be an eye tracking based gaze technology, wherein eye tracking may be performed based on a face image acquired by a camera. Namely, the terminal equipment can acquire the face image of the user through the front camera, and can perform eye positioning analysis on the acquired face image to determine the eye region of the user. Eye analysis may then be performed on the eye region to determine a pupil position of the left eye and a pupil position of the right eye, and a gaze direction of the left eye may be determined from the pupil position of the left eye and a gaze direction of the right eye may be determined from the pupil position of the right eye. Finally, the intersection of the left-eye line of sight direction and the right-eye line of sight direction may be determined as the gaze position of the user. Therefore, the first gaze path of the user in the first preset time length can be obtained according to the gaze position at each moment in the first preset time length.

It should be understood that the information received by the terminal device may include some information that the user may not want to view, such as advertisement push information, and if the prompt information is displayed again for the information that the user does not want to view, the user experience is obviously affected. In the embodiment of the application, the terminal equipment can only display the prompt message again for the important message which the user wants to check in time. When it is determined that unread prompt information exists in the terminal device, the terminal device may first acquire an information type corresponding to the prompt information, and when the information type is a target type, the terminal device may acquire a first gaze path of the user within a first preset time duration, so as to determine whether the user notices the prompt information according to the first gaze path. The target type is an information type corresponding to preset important information. The important information may be at least one of short message information, WeChat information, mail information, incoming call information and the like corresponding to the target contact person, content push information and the like corresponding to a target application program or a target account in the target application program, and prompt information corresponding to a target system function or a target application function. The prompt information corresponding to the target system function or the target application function may be the highlight display of the terminal device on the target system function or the target application function, the target system function may be a system update or a newly added function in the terminal device, and the target application function may be an application update or a newly added function in the terminal device. Here, the important information may be custom-set by the user, or may be determined by default by the terminal device based on the historical behavior data of the user.

In the embodiment of the application, the function of displaying the prompt information again (hereinafter, may be referred to as a prompt review function) may be an optional function in the terminal device, the terminal device may start the prompt review function in a manual manner, and the user-defined setting of the important information may be performed in a prompt review management interface corresponding to the prompt review function.

For example, the terminal device may display an icon and/or a menu bar prompting the review function, which is used to provide a prompt review function for the user to manually turn on the terminal device. For example, as shown in (a) of fig. 4, the terminal device may display an icon prompting the review function in the shortcut control interface, where the shortcut control interface may further include icons of conventional functions such as WLAN, bluetooth, mobile data, auto-rotation, brightness, and the like, and is used to implement shortcut operations of related functions such as WLAN, bluetooth, mobile data, auto-rotation, and the like. Alternatively, as shown in (b) of fig. 4, the terminal device may display a menu bar prompting the review function in the setting interface, where the setting interface may further include a setting menu bar of conventional functions such as WLAN, bluetooth, mobile data, auto-rotation, brightness, and the like, for implementing setting operations of related functions such as WLAN, bluetooth, mobile data, auto-rotation, and the like.

When the terminal device detects a relevant operation (for example, a relevant touch operation or click operation) of the user on the shortcut control interface or the setting interface, it may be determined that the prompt review function of the terminal device needs to be turned on, the terminal device may directly turn on the prompt review function, or the terminal device may query the user through a popup window whether to determine to turn on the prompt review function. For example, the terminal device may directly turn on the prompt review function upon detecting that an icon prompting the review function is lit as shown in (a) in fig. 4 or upon detecting that an on-off key of a menu bar prompting the review function is turned on as shown in (b) in fig. 4; or a popup window as shown in (c) of fig. 4 may be displayed to display "is it determined to turn on the prompt review function? "and the selection keys of" yes "and" no ". When the terminal device detects that the user clicks 'yes', the terminal device can start a prompt review function. Here, the popup shown in fig. 4 (c) will be described by taking an example in which the terminal device detects that the on/off key of the menu bar prompting the review function shown in fig. 4 (b) is turned on.

In one example, after the prompt review function of the terminal device is turned on, the terminal device may provide a prompt review management interface as shown in (a) of fig. 5 for providing a user with a custom setting of important information. The prompt review management interface can display the application programs in the terminal equipment and/or can display the contacts stored in the terminal equipment. The user may make custom settings for important information based on the application and/or may make custom settings for important information based on the contact. The following description will exemplarily take an example in which an application and a contact are simultaneously displayed in the prompt review management interface.

Specifically, when custom setting of important information is performed based on an application, the user can click or touch a prompt to review a target application in the management interface. After detecting that a user clicks or touches a target application program, the terminal device may display a setting detail page corresponding to the target application program, where the setting detail page may display a menu bar corresponding to the target application program, and may also display menu bars corresponding to respective account numbers of the target application program. The user can open the on-off key of the menu bar corresponding to the target application program to set all information corresponding to the target application program as important information, that is, all information received or pushed by the target application program is set as important information. Or the on-off key of the menu bar corresponding to the target account in the target application program can be opened to set the information corresponding to the target account in the target application program as important information, that is, all the information pushed by the target account is set as important information. The target application program may be at least one of all application programs, the target account may be at least one of all accounts of the target application program, and all accounts may include a contact, a public number, an applet, and the like.

For example, after the terminal device detects that the user clicks or touches the wechat shown in (a) of fig. 5, the terminal device may display a setting detail page corresponding to the wechat shown in (b) of fig. 5, the setting detail page may display a menu bar corresponding to the wechat, and may also display a menu bar corresponding to each account number such as a contact, a public number, and the like in the wechat. As shown in (b) of fig. 5, when the user turns on the switch key 501 of the menu bar corresponding to the wechat, the terminal device may determine all the wechat information received or pushed by the wechat as important information. That is, for any one of the wechat messages which are not checked in time, when the terminal device detects that the user does not notice the prompt message corresponding to the wechat message, the prompt message can be displayed again in a preset mode. As shown in (c) of fig. 5, when the user turns on the switch key 502 of the menu bar corresponding to Tom in the WeChat and turns on the switch key 503 of the menu bar corresponding to the public number AAA, the terminal device may determine only the WeChat information sent by Tom and the WeChat information pushed by AAA in the WeChat as the important information. That is, for any one of the wechat messages that is not checked in time, when detecting that the user does not notice the prompt message corresponding to the wechat message, the terminal device may first determine whether the wechat message is the wechat message sent by Tom or the wechat message pushed by AAA. When it is determined that the wechat information is the wechat information sent by Tom or the wechat information pushed by AAA, the terminal device may display the prompt information again in a preset manner. And when determining that the wechat information is not the wechat information sent by Tom and not the wechat information pushed by AAA, the terminal device may not display the prompt information again.

Specifically, when the user performs the customized setting of important information based on the contact, the user can click or touch the target contact in the review management interface. After detecting that a user clicks or touches a target contact person, the terminal device may display a setting detail page corresponding to the target contact person, where the setting detail page may display a menu bar corresponding to the target contact person, and may also display menu bars corresponding to respective information items that may be associated with the target contact person. A user can open a switch key of a menu bar corresponding to a target contact person to set all information corresponding to the target contact person as important information, namely all information sent by the target contact person is set as important information; or the on-off key of the menu bar corresponding to the target information item in the target contact person can be opened to determine the information related to the target information item in the target contact person as the important information, that is, all the information corresponding to the target information item sent by the target contact person is set as the important information. The target contact person may be at least one of all contact persons, the target information item may be at least one of all information items in the target contact person, and all information items may include information items such as short message information, telephone information, WeChat information, mail information, microblog information and the like.

For example, after the terminal device detects that the user clicks or touches Jack shown in (d) of fig. 5, the terminal device may display a setting detail page corresponding to Jack as shown in (e) of fig. 5, where the setting detail page may display a menu bar corresponding to Jack, and may also display a menu bar corresponding to each information item, such as a WeChat, a short message, a telephone call, and a mail, corresponding to Jack. As shown in fig. 5 (e), when the user opens the switch key 504 of the menu bar corresponding to Jack, the terminal device may determine all information (which may include short message information, telephone information, WeChat information, and mail information) sent by Jack as important information. That is, for any information that is not checked in time in the terminal device, when the terminal device detects that the user does not notice the prompt information corresponding to the information, it may be determined whether the information is the information sent by Jack first. When the information is determined to be the information sent by Jack, the terminal equipment can display the prompt information again in a preset mode. When it is determined that the information is not the information transmitted by Jack, the terminal device may not display the prompt information again. As shown in (f) of fig. 5, when the user opens the on-off key 505 of the menu bar corresponding to the WeChat in Jack and the on-off key 506 of the menu bar corresponding to the telephone, the terminal device may determine all WeChat information and all incoming call information corresponding to Jack as important information. That is, for any information that is not checked in time in the terminal device, when the terminal device detects that the user does not notice the prompt information corresponding to the information, it may first determine whether the information is the WeChat information or the incoming call information corresponding to Jack. When the information is determined to be WeChat information sent by Jack or incoming call information called by Jack, the terminal equipment can display the prompt information again in a preset mode. When the information is determined not to be the WeChat information sent by Jack or not to be the incoming call information of incoming call of Jack, the terminal equipment does not display the prompt information again.

In another example, when the prompt review function of the terminal device is turned on, the terminal device may provide a prompt review management interface as shown in (a) of fig. 6 for providing a user with a custom setting of important information. The prompt review management interface may include a selected information bar 601, a candidate information bar 602, and an add control 603 for adding new important information. The selected information field 601 is used to display important information that has been set by the user, and if no important information is set, a prompt message indicating that no important information is set may be displayed, for example, a prompt message of "no important information is set" as shown in (a) of fig. 6 is displayed. The candidate information field 602 is used to display information that is not set as important information. The important information and information at this time can be represented by the contact and/or the information item corresponding to the contact, or can be represented by the application and/or the account corresponding to the application.

When the user performs the customized setting of the important information, the user can perform the customized setting of the important information by clicking the adding control 603. Or, a selection operation (for example, a click operation, a touch operation, a drag operation, or the like) may be directly performed on the target contact, the target information item corresponding to the target contact, the target application, or the target account corresponding to the target application in the candidate information field 602, and at this time, the terminal device may directly add the target contact, the target information item corresponding to the target contact, the target application, or the target account corresponding to the target application to the selected information field 601, so as to set the corresponding information as the important information. Alternatively, the terminal device may query the user through a popup to determine whether to set information corresponding to the target contact, the target application, and the like as important information. For example, as shown in (a) in fig. 6, when the terminal device detects that the user performs a selection operation on the short messages in the candidate information bar 602, the terminal device may display a popup window as shown in (b) in fig. 6 to display "is it determined that all the short messages are set as important information? "and selection keys of" confirm "and" cancel ", when the terminal device detects that the user clicks" confirm ", the terminal device may add a short message to the selected information field 601 and delete the short message in the candidate information field 602, as shown in (c) of fig. 6.

If the user needs to cancel the setting of some important information, the user may perform a selection operation (for example, a click operation, a touch operation, a drag operation, or the like) on a target contact to be canceled, a target information item corresponding to the target contact, a target application, or a target account corresponding to the target application in the selected information field 601, and at this time, the terminal device may directly delete the target contact, the target information item corresponding to the target contact, the target application, or the target account corresponding to the target application from the selected information field 601, so as to cancel the setting of the corresponding information as the important information. Or, the terminal device may query the user through a popup to determine whether to cancel the setting of the information corresponding to the target contact, the target application, and the like as the important information. For example, as shown in (d) in fig. 6, when the terminal device detects that the user performs a selection operation on the short message in the selected information field 601, the terminal device may display a popup window as shown in (e) in fig. 6 to display "determine to cancel the short message as important information? "and selection keys for" confirm "and" cancel ". When the terminal device detects that the user clicks "confirm", as shown in (f) in fig. 6, the terminal device may delete the short message in the selected information field 601 and add the short message to the candidate information field 602, which is convenient for the user to perform subsequent setting again.

It should be noted that, when the prompt review function of the terminal device is turned on but the user does not custom set any important information, the terminal device may perform default setting of the important information.

Illustratively, the terminal device may make a default setting of important information according to the historical behavior data of the user. For example, the terminal device may obtain the WeChat information coming and going in the last week or one month in the terminal device, and may classify the contact corresponding to the WeChat information. Then, the target contact persons with the information quantity of the WeChat information being larger than or equal to the preset quantity threshold value can be obtained, and the WeChat information corresponding to the target contact persons can be determined as important information. Or the first N target contacts with the largest amount of information of the wechat information may be acquired, and the wechat information corresponding to the N target contacts may all be determined as important information, where N is an integer greater than or equal to 1. Similarly, the terminal device may also perform default setting of important information according to telephone information/short message information/mail information and the like coming and going in the last week or month of the terminal device.

Illustratively, the terminal device may make a default setting of important information according to the information type. Alternatively, the terminal device may determine short message information/mail information/Wechat information and the like of a non-advertisement class as important information, and/or may determine telephone information of a non-advertisement promotion class as important information. For example, the terminal device may perform keyword extraction on received short message information/mail information/Wechat information, etc., and may determine whether the information is advertisement-type information according to whether the extracted keyword includes an advertisement-promotion-type keyword. When the information is not advertisement information, the terminal device can determine the information as important information, and can display the prompt information corresponding to the information again when detecting that the user does not notice the prompt information corresponding to the information.

For example, the terminal device may default all information received by the terminal device as important information, that is, for any information received by the terminal device, the terminal device may display the prompt information again when detecting that the user does not notice the prompt information.

In the embodiment of the present application, the preset manner of displaying the prompt information again may be one or more of the following: (1) displaying an application icon in a dynamic effect mode; (2) changing the icon size and/or icon color of the application icon; (3) voice playing prompt information; (4) and displaying prompt information at a preset position in a banner or popup mode.

Alternatively, the dynamic effect display application icon in (1) above may be a control application icon or a display number in an application icon to jump, and/or may be an application icon with an added bubble jump or the like.

Optionally, the preset position in (4) above may be a position set by default by the terminal device, for example, the terminal device may set the position at the upper end of the display interface as the preset position by default. Therefore, when the prompt information is displayed again, the terminal device may display the direct prompt information at the upper end of the display interface as shown in fig. 7 (a).

Optionally, when the user needs to perform a related operation (for example, performing a game, viewing a video, reading, or the like) on the display interface, in order to reduce interference of the display of the prompt information on the current operation of the user, the terminal device may dynamically determine the preset position in (4) according to an actual situation, so as to display the prompt information again on the basis of not affecting the current operation of the user, thereby improving user experience. Specifically, the terminal device may first detect an operation position of an operation that needs to be performed by the user on the display interface and a gaze position of the user currently in the display interface, and may determine any position other than the operation position and the gaze position in the display interface as the preset position in (4). The gaze position may be obtained by the aforementioned gaze technology, and is not described herein again.

In one example, the terminal device may acquire a position of an operation such as a click or touch performed by the user in the display interface before the prompt information is displayed again, and may determine an operation position of the user in the display interface according to the acquired position. For example, the acquired position may be determined as an operation position of the user in the display interface, or a position corresponding to a minimum area (e.g., a minimum rectangular area or a minimum circular area) in the display interface, which includes the acquired position, may be determined as an operation position of the user in the display interface.

In another example, the terminal device may determine the operation position of the user in the display interface according to the corresponding position of the relevant operation of the application program in the display interface. For example, in a game application, the terminal device may determine the position of a click or touch operation in the game in the display interface as the operation position of the user in the display interface. For example, in a video application, the terminal device may determine, as an operation position of the user in the display interface, a position in the display interface where an operation of performing a search, a next item selection, a previous item selection, a comment transmission, and the like in the video application, which may be clicked or touched by the user, is performed.

Optionally, the terminal device may dynamically determine the preset position in (4) above by combining default settings and actual conditions. Specifically, the terminal device may set the preset position by default. When the prompt information is displayed in the manner of (4), the terminal device may first detect an operation position of an operation that needs to be performed by a user in the display interface and a gaze position of the user currently in the display interface, determine whether there is an overlapping portion between the preset position and the operation position, and determine whether there is an overlapping portion between the preset position and the gaze position. When there is no overlapping portion between the preset position and the operation position and there is no overlapping portion between the preset position and the gaze position, the terminal device may determine the preset position as the preset position described in (4), that is, the terminal device may display the prompt information at the preset position set by default in a banner or pop-up window manner. When there is an overlapping portion between the preset position and the operation position, or there is an overlapping portion between the preset position and the gaze position, the terminal device may adjust the preset position according to the operation position and the gaze position, and may determine the adjusted preset position as the preset position described in (4). Specifically, the terminal device may determine any position in the display interface where there is no overlapping portion with the operation position and the gaze position as the adjusted preset position, that is, the terminal device may display the prompt information again in a banner or popup manner at a position other than the operation position 702 and the gaze position 701 in the display interface shown in fig. 7 (b), so that interference of the display of the prompt information on the current operation of the user is reduced, and user experience is improved.

In one example, to increase the possibility that the user notices the prompt message, the terminal device may determine the preset position in (4) above according to the user's current gaze position in the display interface. Specifically, the terminal device may detect a gaze position of the user currently in the display interface, and may determine a position of the user at or near the gaze position in the display interface as a preset position, so as to display the prompt information at the position at which the user is currently gazing through a banner or a pop-up window, thereby improving a possibility that the prompt information is noticed by the user.

In the embodiment of the present application, in order to increase the possibility that the user notices the prompt message and thus view the message in time, the terminal device may also display the prompt message for the first time by using at least one of the manners (1) to (4) above.

For example, in the scenario where the prompt information is displayed for the first time in the manner in (4), the terminal device may first detect an operation position and a gaze position of the user in the display interface, determine whether there is an overlapping portion between a preset position set in the terminal device for displaying the prompt information for the first time and the operation position, and determine whether there is an overlapping portion between the preset position and the gaze position. When there is no overlapping portion between the preset position and the operation position and there is no overlapping between the preset position and the gaze position, the terminal device may display the prompt message for the first time at the preset position in a banner or pop-up window manner. When an overlapping part exists between the preset position and the operation position or between the preset position and the gaze position, the terminal device can display the prompt message for the first time in a banner or popup mode at any position except the operation position and the gaze position in the display interface so as to display the prompt message for the first time on the basis of not interfering the current operation of the user, and improve the user experience.

For example, in the scenario that the prompt information is displayed for the first time in the manner in (4), the terminal device may determine the information type of the prompt information first, and when the information type is not the target type, where the target type is the information type of the prompt information corresponding to the important information, that is, when the prompt information is not the prompt information corresponding to the important information, the terminal device may obtain the operation position and the gaze position of the user currently in the display interface. Then, the terminal device can display the prompt information for the first time in a banner or popup mode at any position except the operation position and the gaze position in the display interface, so that the non-important prompt information can be displayed for the first time on the basis of not interfering with the operation of the user. When the information type is the target type, that is, when the prompt information is the prompt information corresponding to the important information, the terminal device may acquire the gaze position of the user in the display interface. Then, the terminal device can display the prompt information for the first time at the gaze position or a position near the gaze position in a banner or popup manner to draw the attention of the user to the prompt information, so that the information can be viewed in time.

In the embodiment of the application, in the process of acquiring the first gaze path of the user within the first preset time, when it is detected that the attention of the user is not on the display interface or when it is detected that the user is staying in the display interface, the terminal device may display the recall information first to remind the user to recall or awaken the attention of the user. And then the prompt message is displayed, thereby improving the possibility that the user notices the prompt message. The terminal equipment can display the recall information in a dynamic effect display mode in the display interface and/or a voice broadcasting mode and the like.

Specifically, when the user uses the terminal device, the terminal device may acquire, through the gaze technology, a gaze path of the user within a third preset time period (i.e., a second gaze path described in the claims, which will be referred to as a second gaze path hereinafter). When none of the gaze positions included in the second gaze path is on the display interface, the terminal device may determine that the current attention of the user is not on the display interface, and at this time, the terminal device may display recall information to recall the attention of the user to the display interface. For example, as shown in fig. 8, the terminal device may dynamically display a cartoon character and prompt the user by playing a voice of the cartoon character to recall the attention of the user to the display interface. When the gaze position included in the second gaze path is the same position in the display interface, the terminal device may determine that the user is currently in the nervous state, and at this time, the terminal device may display recall information to prompt the user to wake up the nervous state of the user. The third preset duration may be set by default by the terminal device or may be set by the user. For example, the terminal device may default the third preset duration to 10 seconds.

In the embodiment of the application, in the process of displaying the prompt information again, when the terminal device detects that the user is reading the content, the terminal device may further acquire the reading position of the user in real time through a gaze technology. When the reading position is the tail position in the display interface, the terminal equipment can automatically perform page turning action so as to improve the reading convenience of the user and improve the user experience. The page turning direction corresponding to the page turning action can be consistent with the reading habit of the user. For example, when the terminal device determines that the user is accustomed to turning the page to the left by analyzing the historical reading data of the user, the terminal device may turn the page to the left as shown in (a) of fig. 9 when performing the automatic page turning operation. For example, when the terminal device determines that the user is accustomed to turning the page to the right by analyzing the historical reading data of the user, the terminal device may perform the automatic page turning operation in a manner of turning the page to the right as shown in (b) of fig. 9. For example, when the terminal device determines that the user is accustomed to turning up the page through analyzing the historical reading data of the user, the terminal device may turn up the page when performing the automatic page turning operation. For example, when the terminal device determines that the user is accustomed to turning down the page through analyzing the historical reading data of the user, the terminal device may turn down the page when performing the automatic page turning operation.

In one example, during the process of content reading by the user, the terminal device can also acquire the reading position of the user in real time through a gazing technology and monitor the moment when the user stops reading. When it is monitored that the user stops reading, the terminal device can record the reading position corresponding to the moment when the user stops reading. Subsequently, when the terminal device detects that the user restarts reading, the terminal device can mark the recorded reading position to prompt the user of the reading position when the reading is finished last time, so that the user can continue to perform subsequent reading conveniently, and the reading efficiency is improved. The reading stopping may be stopping when the user actively or passively quits the reading application program, stopping reading when the reading application program is switched to the background operation, stopping reading when the user keeps away from the display interface, and the like. The terminal device may perform labeling of the reading position by changing a content display effect at the recorded reading position, and/or by inserting a specific icon at the recorded reading position. Here, the changing of the content display effect at the reading position may be changing one or more of a font, a text size, a color, and the like of the content at the reading position. The specific icon may be any icon, for example, a finger icon, a bookmark icon, etc. For example, as shown in (c) of fig. 9, the terminal device may perform labeling of the reading position by inserting a finger icon at the recorded reading position.

For example, the terminal device may determine whether the user leaves the display interface to stop reading through a gaze technology or an image captured through a front camera of the terminal device. For example, when the terminal device detects, through the gaze technology, that the gaze path of the user within the fourth preset time period includes a gaze position not on the display interface, the terminal device may determine that the user currently leaves the display interface, at which point the terminal device may determine that the user stops reading. For example, when the terminal device determines that a complete face does not exist in the image through analyzing the image acquired by the front camera, the terminal device may determine that the user currently leaves the display interface, and at this time, the terminal device may determine that the user stops reading.

Based on the above description, the information display method provided by the embodiment of the present application will be briefly described below. Referring to fig. 10, fig. 10 is a schematic flowchart illustrating an information display method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method can be applied to a terminal device. As shown in fig. 10, the method may include:

s1001, when the unread prompt message exists in the terminal device, acquiring a first gaze path of a user within a first preset time length.

S1002, determining whether the first gaze path comprises a display position corresponding to the prompt message.

S1003, when the first gaze path comprises a display position corresponding to the prompt message, acquiring the gaze duration of the user at the display position.

And S1004, determining whether the gaze duration is less than a second preset duration.

S1005, when the first gaze path does not include the display position, or the gaze duration is less than a second preset duration, displaying the prompt message in a preset mode.

It should be noted that the first gaze path may be a gaze path of the user in the display interface of the terminal device, that is, the terminal device may first acquire all gaze positions of the user within a first preset time period, determine a target gaze position located on the display interface of the terminal device in all gaze positions, and then determine a gaze path composed of the target gaze positions as the first gaze path.

It should be understood that the display position corresponding to the prompt information refers to a display position of the prompt information in a display interface of the terminal device. In addition, when the gaze duration is greater than or equal to the second preset duration, the terminal device may determine that the user has noticed the prompt information, the terminal device may not perform the displaying of the prompt information again, and may perform the determination of the next unread prompt information and the subsequent operations.

According to the information display method provided by the embodiment of the application, when the unread prompt information exists in the terminal equipment, whether the user notices the prompt information or not can be determined through a gazing technology. When it is determined that the user does not notice the prompt information, the terminal device can intelligently display the prompt information again through a preset mode so as to improve the possibility that the user notices the prompt information, thereby helping the user to check the information in time, reducing the possibility that the user omits to check the information, improving the user experience, and having stronger usability and practicability.
